"So (So)?"

In the hustle and bustle of Yunxiang's temples and coveted chips, Edith was holding a champagne glass, leaning against the door panel with half of her shoulder lazily, hiding her figure in a position where light and shadow intertwined, with a faint look A trace of irritability and languidness, the stubbornness and unruly eyes in his eyes are critically looking at the people coming and going at the banquet, quietly appreciating the struggles of all living beings as an indifferent bystander.

Standing in the shadow next to it was Lan Li, carefully concealing his own figure, in the focus of the audience, quietly sneaking for a moment, breathing some fresh air, Los Angeles under the cover of night, the stars of Wan There is a kind of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle in the home.

The phrase "so what" actually means Edith is asking about Lan Li's thoughts tonight.

Lan Li did not immediately answer, holding the whiskey glass in his hand and turning it gently, as if looking at the audience through the amber luster, the refraction of the light made the images distorted and weird, as seen through a haha ​​mirror. The world is generally, there is a kind of wonderful absurd humor.

"I now hope that I didn't win the prize tonight." Lan Li gave an unexpected answer, with a hint of self-deprecating in his calm voice.

But Edith was not surprised at all. Instead, she squeezed the corners of her mouth lightly, with a trace of joking in her eyes, "Sometimes, I also think about whether things would be different if I didn't go to the front line."

Lan Li's throat let out a shallow laugh, "So, what's your answer?"

"Perhaps." Edith raised the champagne glass and took a sip. "It's like an ostrich."

When ostriches encounter danger, they will bury their heads in the sand, blind their eyes, and pretend that the danger does not exist; but everyone knows that the danger never disappears, not only does it not disappear, but may also cause devastating results.

This is what Edith meant.

She can escape to the front line, and then pretend that things never happened, then she can still enjoy her comfortable life, but those problems will not disappear, and may be the beginning of destroying the life they insist on guarding. Therefore, she does not regret, she still insists on her beliefs.

Lan Li, the same is true.

"Are you talking about me pretending to be an ostrich?" Lan Li chuckled lightly, Edith was noncommittal, but she gave Lan Li a look but it couldn't be more obvious. Lan Li pursed the corner of his mouth and expressed his confession. "To be honest, I am a selfish guy. I just want to be an actor, a pure actor. I don't want to be the savior, nor do I want to change history. Those things, although great, require too much effort."

"Your subtext is, this is your destiny? So, you became the one who drew the sword in the stone?" Edith rolled her eyes.

Lan Li couldn't help but laughed happily, "I hope I didn't." This was tantamount to acquiescence, acquiescence that he drew the sword in the stone.

Edith thought about it seriously, but after all, she didn’t continue to complain, “We hoped for many, many things, but in reality there is no way to achieve them all. At least, you have achieved a large part of it, so you should stop complaining, well. Take the responsibility that belongs to you."

"...It's not like Edith Hall at all. Where is the rebellious girl I know?" Lan Li spit out jokingly.

"In your heart." Edith gave a direct counterattack, making both siblings laugh.

After the award ceremony, both Renly and Edith knew clearly that the ascent of the "Blasting Drummer" meant that Sisyphus Pictures’ responsibilities had become heavier, and it also meant that Lanly’s success in Shengdan last year. The concept of the Sri Lanka Film Festival has initially emerged. It seems that the spring of independent films has finally begun. The blueprint of the Don Quixote Channel has been successfully established, and the plan can be slowly unfolded.

Next, Sisyphus Pictures needs to fully develop in the Hollywood industry in the name of Lanly, mobilize as many independent film forces as possible to join them, and accumulate enough power to promote the earth-shaking changes of the industry.

What they expect is not to use streaming media to change the rules of the industry, but to open up new ways for art films through streaming media.

Therefore, Sisyphus Pictures needs to make other practitioners in Hollywood understand that the Don Quixote Channel is not an enemy, but an alternative.

As the initiator of the entire plan, Lan Li personally promoted the development of the entire incident. Now, he must also shoulder such a huge and heavy responsibility. This is the reason for the above-mentioned conversation between Lan Li and Edith.

However, Lan Li did not expect at all that the "Burst Drummer" could reach the top so quickly, and the opportunity for an independent film to open up the situation came so quickly. The sudden increase in pressure directly pushed Lan Li to the cusp of the storm. It seems that everything is starting to accelerate.

This kind of pressure was concentrated in the excitement of the Oscar night. It was originally the blue gift that was the focus of the audience, and there was even no room to breathe. After nearly an hour of continuous busying, it passed Edie. With the help of Si and Rooney, they escaped the predicament temporarily.

Now, Edith and Lan Li are chatting, and Rooney is helping to cover, but there are still countless eyes looking for Lan Li on the scene.

"If you can do it again, would you still be willing to launch Sisyphus Pictures?" Edith asked curiously.

She seemed to be able to detect the look in Lan Li's Tucao eyes, and Edith quickly added, "Please don't ask me the same question. I am still confused and I can't answer."

The corner of Lan Li’s mouth overflowed with a smile, "Please don’t rush to answer." Then he succeeded in winning a roll of Edith's eyes. Lan Li did not give the answer immediately, but thought about it for a while, "The answer is yes. Yes." But then he added, "I guess." Expressing his uncertainty.

In fact, Lan Li can continue to stick to his dream of acting as an actor, and keep a small world. Without worry or worry, he can have a perfect career, just like Daniel Day Lewis, being a pure player. Actor, and then performed until retirement.

But when I think about it carefully, Lan Li understands that he can have today’s achievements and is inseparable from Don Quixote. They tirelessly support his dreams, walking side by side all the way, that strength and enthusiasm, It is impossible to express with words alone, he needs to act on his own.

Don Quixote in here, Sisyphus in myth, their ending is tragedy:

After Don Quixote’s dream bubble was ruthlessly punctured, he died of illness and remorse lonely at home. At the end of his life, he doubted his life; while Sisyphus was trapped in an unsolvable cycle forever. Among them, there is no way to escape or give up, until the day of exhaustion.

Without the support of those dreamers, would Renly follow in the footsteps of Don Quixote and Sisyphus? After all, at the very beginning of the story, he was just a stupid dreamer.

However, Lanly succeeded in breaking the fateful tragedy, and truly let Don Quixote's obsessions shine, and his dreams came true. How could he abandon other dreamers?

As stated in tonight’s award-winning speech, please don’t abandon your dreams.

After receiving Lan Li's answer, Edith's gaze fell on the champagne glass, watching the bubbles flowing like pearls under the light, the shackles on her shoulders seemed to loosen a little, and she moved slightly. His upset mood gradually settled down.

At the Oscars tonight, Edith is also burdened with heavy responsibilities. Like Lanly, she also needs to cheer up and move on on the path she has chosen.

"Now, it's my turn to play. I'll save poor Rooney. I think she's going to be overwhelmed." Edith stood up straight again, the cynical expression in her eyes receded, straightened her waist and opened her chest. , Once again radiate the demeanor of hereditary aristocracy.

Faced with Edith's teasing, Lan Li quietly joked back, "Then what about Chris? I think he is very, very lonely tonight."

"Two in a row? Dear Lan Li, I think you are still a little nervous, and your words are not as sharp as usual." Edith glanced at Lan Li, and then did not wait for Lan Li to counterattack. Run away quickly, take it when you see it, and enjoy your little results tonight.

Watching Edith leave, then Rooney went around in the banquet hall for a half circle, passing by Ran Li's location inadvertently, and cast an inquiring look at Lan Li from the corner of her gaze, as if she was saying: Still Okay?

Lan Li blinked narrowly, and said with his mouth, "Ten minutes." It meant that I still need ten minutes to adjust.

Rooney pursed the corner of her mouth, made a small grimace, and shook her head gently: Ten minutes? That's too long~www.novelhall.com~It's estimated to be difficult.

After a brief glance, Rooney turned and walked away, but Lan Li's mood was obviously lightened.

Lan Li also knew that ten minutes was indeed too extravagant. He trimmed it for a while, then left the shadows and joined the noisy torrent of Oscar Night again.

It was a busy night, and it was impossible to describe it in words. Those short and hurried meetings took place in the corners of the Sunset Tower Hotel, but every conversation hides a lot of information, and you can feel it even when you look at it. To the tension and excitement of the undercurrent surging.

Don't talk about reporters, even the guests present at the scene can't figure out the context within a short period of time.

Maybe only after the Oscar night is over, and then calm down, think carefully, and slowly taste, can we piece together the blueprint of the whole thing-but it is also possible that we can never figure it out and can only become a part of the torrent of the times. Being pushed forward, following the whole Hollywood with the crowd.

The only certainty is that Lanly is at the center of this storm.
